Wouldn't this also collapse our economy and international credit rating?

It is a chicken and egg problem.

The real root cause as you said is very likely down to individual's media literacy and critical thinking skills. But the solution to educate everyone from ground up would be very costly and less efficient.

From an efficiency perspective, the government have to figure out ways to stop misinformation from spreading in short term. And hopefully, next few generation will have better critical thinking and analytic skills to online information.

I don't know how they would draw the line between misinformation and first amendment. But hopefully, a competent government will see this as a problem and find solutions to it.

Thank you for writing this out so clearly.

People's attention span has been decreasing since the introduction of social media, smart phones, and ease of access of information.

Imo the government should hold entertainers and public figures accountable for spreading misinformation. But this is hard to enforce and the root cause is people's attention span.

While I agree their firearm ban is totally rushed and makes zero sense at all. I still don't think they would've gotten a lot more seats/votes if they hadn't passed this law.

If they is such a big deal for the general population, Carney's platform could've try to either rewrite it or cancel it altogether like Capital Gain Tax.

Though I really wish Carney's platform could address questionable decision by the previous catastrophic PM like Bill C-21, C-18, and C-75 among many others.
